I will never decline an opportunity to spend a few days in the beautiful Mpumalanga Lowveld of South Africa, visiting the Sabi Sabi bush and seeing some good friends are always food for the soul.

We were very lucky on the day of our arrival that we could spend some time with a female leopard and her two 3 month old cubs. It's always interesting to observe the cub's behaviour, especially when there is an impala (antelope) carcass involved. The female eventually climbed into the Marula tree (where she cached the carcass) to feed, with one of the cubs following a few minutes later.
